Our guest this week is Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff, who says he has never been as excited about anything in his career as he is about the latest developments in artificial intelligence — AI agents that can autonomously reason, plan, and take action on behalf of businesses. Benioff is almost as strong in his negative sentiments toward Microsoft's Copilot. He calls Copilot the second coming of Microsoft's much-maligned "Clippy" Office assistant, and asserts that the Redmond company is giving AI a bad name by disappointing customers with underwhelming results and lax security. We spoke with Benioff in advance of the general availability of the San Francisco company's Agentforce AI technology for sales and service. We also talked about Benioff's ownership of Time magazine, and what that means for his political involvement; and the status of his past pledge to turn Seattle into Salesforce's HQ2.

Subscribe to our newsletter at https://aidaily.us AI Agents Replace Copilots in Generative AI Tech giants like Microsoft, Salesforce, and Oracle are shifting focus from AI copilots to more autonomous AI agents. These agents handle complex tasks independently, but questions remain on how they'll be monetized. Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff criticized Microsoft's approach, advocating for more integrated AI solutions.  Survey: 55% of Users Turning Away from Traditional Search Engines A survey by Barry Schwartz shows that 55% of respondents are using traditional search engines like Google less, favoring generative AI tools like ChatGPT. This contrasts with another survey by The Information, which reported a higher figure of 77%. The discrepancy might be due to differences in audience demographics, with Schwartz's poll leaning more toward SEO and search marketing professionals.

The outcome, voted on by the audience, will offer insights into AI's potential in courtroom settings. Food Bloggers Concerned Over AI-Generated Recipes AI's integration into recipe development, including Apple's latest "Apple Intelligence," has stirred concerns among food bloggers. While AI can conveniently generate meal plans, critics argue that it lacks the human nuance, sensory experience, and cultural connection vital to cooking. Sarah and Kaitlin Leung, creators of The Woks of Life, emphasize that AI can't replicate the deep research and testing involved in crafting recipes. Conversely, Andrew Olson, developer of the AI-powered DishGen, believes AI offers new creativity in cooking without replacing human insight. Are Résumés Becoming Obsolete in the Age of AI? As AI increasingly powers applicant tracking systems and platforms like LinkedIn grow, some job seekers question if résumés are still necessary.

So blood sugar is something we should all be managing, but we just don't know that we should.”While other companies have made headway in understanding biometric sensor data—from heart rate and glucose monitors, for example—January AI has made progress in analyzing and predicting the effects of food consumption itself.Where to find Noosheen Hashemi:• Website: Blood Sugar Monitoring Without A CGM | AI Health App | January AI• LinkedIn(18) Noosheen Hashemi | LinkedIn Where to find Hadi Radwan:• Newsletter: Principles Friday | Hadi Radwan | Substack• LinkedIn: Hadi Radwan | LinkedInIf you like our podcast, please don't forget to subscribe and support us on your favorite podcast players.

Of the different acquisitions with which Jason Leet became involved at ExactTarget of Indianapolis, Indiana, there's little question that the seventh was the most impactful on his finance career. As it turned out, this would also be his last acquisition—or perhaps we should say his last ExactTarget acquisition, given that this time it was ExactTarget itself that was being acquired. In 2013, ExactTarget became not only the largest company that tech wunderkind Salesforce had ever acquired but also the first publicly traded one. Over the next 9 years, Leet would work on more than 40 acquisitions for Salesforce, including an additional four publicly traded firms. What's more, over this period he would lead the finance team that took charge of what he calls Salesforce's “best-in-class M&A machine.” However, turn back the clock to his ExactTarget days, and it's easy to see that for a number of months, Salesforce did indeed flip Leet's world upside down.  “I was involved in some of the diligence, so I was aware of what was going down several months in advance,” explains Leet, who had joined ExactTarget in 2006, as he vividly recalls for us the company's impressive climb upward—along with its disappointing 2007 decision to pull its IPO due to Wall Street's economic collapse. “Never waste a good crisis: Having that IPO door slammed became a pivotal moment in our future success,” comments Leet, who tells us that ExactTarget then turned to private investors for funding, which allowed the company to generously invest in the business at a time when many firms were curtailing their spending.    After consecutive years of impressive revenue growth, ExactTarget went public in 2012, after which Salesforce came knocking on the door with a $2.5 billion deal in 2013.    “Since this was Salesforce's first acquisition of a publicly traded company, there was a sense of being in it together with the Salesforce folks with regard to how this whole thing was going to work,” remarks Leet, who tells us that when word of the deal first surfaced, he fed his enthusiasm for the career chapter that lay ahead by buying a copy of Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff's book Behind the Cloud. ”To me,” he continues, “the acquisition was an opportunity, first, to support the business—but as you go through an integration, it's also a chance to follow different lanes of experience, with an eye toward growing with your different teams.” For Leet, this growth would remain inside the realm of M&A, where his 9 years at Salesforce would be what he describes as always being “fresh,” as he became engaged with the different management teams of the companies that Salesforce acquired and sought out knowledge to help in determining how best to invest in the acquired firm to maximize post-acquisition top-line growth. From the ExactTarget acquisition on forward, Leet tells us, M&A has consistently broadened his view of the role that finance plays in business and exposed to him how often the “people part” is the most time-consuming yet most vital aspect of the success of an acquisition. Leet concludes: “My team and I had this sense of ownership, in that we took personally the success or failure of the acquired companies—and because of this, we were able to step up and play a broader leadership role.” –Jack Sweeney
